Universal Reps The DMCA and Tells Trent Reznor To Take His Remix Site Down
Not long after releasing this year's Year Zero album, Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails decided to release a remix album on November 20. However, this isn't a traditional remix album, as it contains all of the multi-track master recording files on a DVD so that fans can remix any of the songs on their computers using Ableton Live or Garage Band. That's right, Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D (in all its leetspeak glory) is a remix album that encourages fans to upload their remixes to the internet. Reznor writes in the news section of nin.com that he felt obligated to create an official hub where fans could upload and share their creations with him and other fans, so he created remix.nin.com. So why is it currently shut down? According to Reznor, Universal shut down the site due to legal issues involving the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and Universal's current legal battle with YouTube and MySpace. The legal battle involves users uploading content owned by Universal and the inability of YouTube and MySpace to screen all of the user-uploaded content.
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act lays down the law about how internet copyright infringement should be handled, but we won't get into any of the details. But I will explain the DMCA's safe harbor provisions using Mr P and I as an example.
First, assume that YouTube has nothing against porn, and let's say that Mr P and I make a porno that we upload to YouTube. In this video, we're humping and groaning to "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi. (My favorite part is when Mr P shouts, "How did you know I've always wanted to bone to this song!") Due to the overwhelming response to P's large pixelated cock, the video blows the fuck up, and Mr P and I are self-made internet porn stars. End of story right? Wrong. A Universal pervert stumbles upon our video one night while the wife is asleep. He notices we're laying each other to Bon Jovi's rawk and zips up his jeans, runs to the phone, and calls one of his higher-ups. With Bon Jovi being a Universal artist, YouTube receives a DMCA take-down notice and YouTube is forced to remove the video.
In this case, no one gets sued. However, it's virtually impossible for YouTube to take down every video that is flagged as copyright infringement. The safe harbor basically only applies if you take down every video that infringes on copyright. YouTube is obviously failing to meet these expectations and is being sued by Universal, which ties this all back to why Universal decided to take down the official Nine Inch Nails remix site. If fans were to mash-up and/or include samples from artists that aren't Universal, then Universal would come across as hypocritical, as they are currently in a legal battle to stop this sort of thing from happening already.
No word yet if the official remix site will ever be up and running again, but since the internet is still a free medium, net-savvy fans have already created their own remix site at ninremixes.com.
I love you, internet.
My Bloody Valentine to Self-Release New Album
According to Billboard, My Bloody Valentine plan to self-release their long-awaited follow-up to Loveless as a digital download. This is pretty interesting because NO BAND TO MY KNOWLEDGE HAS EVER DONE THIS BEFORE.
"At the moment, all I can say is that Kevin is getting the band back together and they will go into the studio next month to work on the new record," says their manager Vinita Joshi. "The plan is that they will release the album themselves via the Internet, but there will also probably be a vinyl release."
Joshi also noted that the band will unlikely do the pay-what-you-want model. Not sure what he's referring to, but all I know is that NO BAND AT LEAST IN RECENT MEMORY HAS EVER DONE THIS BEE-FOUR.
Meanwhile, the Loveless lineup of Kevin Shields, Bilinda Butcher, Debbie Googe, and Colm O'Ciosoig will be touring the UK in 2008. Expect more dates as soon as I book them. Yeah, I book shows. What? Wanna fight about it?
MobyRama! If You Called Him Dick, You'd Be Right
Has there ever been a celebration of the great failure that is Moby, such as the TMT first and last annual MobyRama? Probably not, but as innovators with a slow news day, we're willing to take a chance on a more in-depth-than-usual look at the 46-year-old, nasally hipster who is rarely more than the butt of our jokes -- like this one:
Q: How many Mobys does it take to screw in a lightbulb?A: Trick question. Moby and his whole discography sucks.
Alright, alright, so we've heard that one before, but I bet you weren't aware of the following fun facts about Moby:
- Herman Melville was his great-great-great-great uncle, thus his nickname from birth as Moby.
- Moby plans to grace God with his presence, having agreed to pay $207,000 to become the first pop star to travel into space on the VSS Enterprise spaceship in 2010.
- At the time of its release, Moby held the record for fastest song ever -- "Thousand" reached 1015 BMP and appeared on Rare: The Collected B-Sides 1989-1993.
Unfortunately, presenting these facts to my associates seems to have had little to no effect on their impression of Moby, as a few rounds of free-word association still garnered a list with the recurring adjectives of bald headed man-child, vegan, techno, lame, and Gwen Stephani...
Dear readers, give him a chance. Moby is more than all this, and in an effort to illuminate it, I've turned to numerology. With the knowledge that Moby was born on September 11, 1965, I took the liberty of converting those digits into a sum that corresponds to the Life Path number of 5. This is, of course, a number associated with a highly progressive mindset and with those who look to improve upon the world around them. They are adventurous, compassionate, and freedom-loving individuals, and if there's one thing Moby's music has proven to embody release after release, it's freedom. I'm not making this shit up.If I was truly interested, I would research the significance of 15 -- the number of tracks to appear on his sixth album Last Night, to be released March 10, 2008. Reported to be fraught with danceable tunes, Last Night will feature guest appearances by Sugar Hill Gang's MC Grandmaster Caz, Sylvia from Kodu, MC Aynlzi, and the 419 Crew. As stated by Moby in a somewhat elementary manner on his exhaustively updated personal blog, "My favorite guest is the rapper on 'I love to move in here.' His name is Grandmaster Caz, and he was one of the writers of 'Rappers Delight.' He's been rapping since 1975, and I'm really happy to have him on the record."
Had me, lost me, cue-ball!
Wilco Continue Touring Their Conventional Album In 2008
After four universally acclaimed albums, well-documented lineup changes, and a rehab stint, the sky cleared for Wilco. But for many critics and fans, a wide open Sky Blue Sky (TMT Review) is not such a good thing.
We were used to grinding synth drones lapping at Jeff Tweedy's folksy strummers. We were accustomed to country pop ditties disintegrating into vicious feedback squalls. And we loved the little ticks and clicks and loops and bloops that seasoned every track on Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. That's why Sky Blue Sky's clipped, clean guitar workouts came as such a shock to the system. "We want weird Wilco" was somewhere in the subtext of each Sky Blue Sky review. Critics were worried they had been duped all these years by a little studio trickery and a wayward country band. If Sky Blue Sky is the sound of Wilco finding their way, it seems like most listeners are hoping they'll get lost again before the next album.
Now that I got you all pumped up, here are some Australian dates for 2008:
Universal Music Classics & Jazz Tastes From The DRM-Free Waters And They Are Sweet
Think that you, classical music lover, can 'Handel' DRM-free downloads? Or will you 'Beethoven' until you 'Tchaikovsky' all over the place?
Either way, Universal Music wants to know. That's why it's sticking a trepidatious toe into the recently made bathwater of DRM-free MP3s by offering its refined, quite serious catalog of jazz and classical music free of digital rights management for a trial period at classicsandjazz.co.uk. Of course, you still have to pay money for the songs, but at least now you can do what you want with them. Progress. Labels under the UMC&J umbrella include Rounder, Verve, Impulse, Decca, Deutsche Grammophone, Philips, and Emacy. Eat dinner without the creeping fear that your background music is confined by rigid copyright protection. Entertain guest with your vast catalog of 'jazz appropriate to talk over.' Transfer your new songs to a portable device, travel back in time, and cause any number of classical music riots.
Maybe, as Universal is hoping, you'll even be 'Bach' for more. Gosh, classical music is fun.
New Ponytail Album Tames Flyaways; Dustin Wong Flies Away from Ecstatic Sunshine (Updated)
BALTIMORE, MD -- This intrepid reporter sat down to discuss details of Ponytail's forthcoming album with hometown heroes Dustin Wong and Jeremy Hyman. The band is in the studio right now, and the as yet unnamed full-length follow up to this year's excellent Kamehameha will be released this spring. They tell me it will contain eight tracks, but they're not sure what they'll be calling them yet.
Wong and Hyman want everyone to know that they're recording with beloved producer J. Robbins. While the former Jawbox frontman is known for producing more mainstream indie bands, it seems that he's equally adept at capturing the noise-punk adrenaline rush that is Ponytail. "He adjusted so amazingly fast to Molly's vocals," said Hyman, referring to the mind-blowingly intense voice of singer Molly Siegel. Robbins "focuses on performance," said Wong. "He's a realist and he likes to explore."
In other Dustin Wong news, the multitalented guitar maven also announced that he'll be leaving his other incredible band, Ecstatic Sunshine, in a few months. He likens his decision to depart from the trio (soon duo) to the reason why someone might leave a job or transfer schools. "More than leaving," he said, "I'm graduating." He adds that the band will continue without him, and though he won't be touring with Ecstatic Sunshine anymore, he's open to recording some tracks with them in the future. "Ecstatic Sunshine is more like a collective thing now," explained Hyman, who has drummed for the band in the past.
Update: Ecstatic Sunshine will continue as a trio of Matt Papich, Kieran Gillen, and, after Dustin leaves, David Zimmerman on electronics. According to Matt, the new lineup will tour the U.S. next spring, in support of WAY, a forthcoming album on Cardboard.
This Thanksgiving, Jonathan Richman Traces His Hand to Make a Picture of a Turkey, Embarks on Mini-Tour
Life can really drag you down sometimes. Whether we feel downtrodden by the poverty and distress we encounter on the street, the anguish of reading about Britney Spears' spiral out of control, or those MySpace comments you're really excited to read until you find out they're just another "OMG guyz I just got a Macy's giftcard LOL!" hacking attempt, there is no denying that these are trying times in which we live. But before we start to wallow in bitterness and despair, let's take a moment to reflect on the good things in life. As 2007 draws to an end, I'd like to invite you to join me in looking back on the past year and giving thanks for the many blessings we have received.
- In January, Nancy Pelosi became the first female speaker of the US House of Representatives. Between this and the Spice Girls reunion, 2007 is totally the year of girl power!!!
- In March, the crown prince and princess of Brunei His Royal Highness
Al-Muhtadee Billah and his wife, Her Royal Highness Pengiran Anak Sarah
welcomed into this world a son, Prince Abdul Muntaqim. Ahhhh!
- In October, Lindsay Lohan completed a lengthy stint in rehab, thereby
saving her career and giving us hope for more gems like Herby: Fully
Loaded and I Know Who Killed Me.
- In November, President Bush pardoned the lives of some delicious turkeys so that they could live to waddle confusedly through a Thanksgiving Day parade.
If that wasn't enough already, I have more good news about 2007! Jonathan Richman, vocalist for The Modern Lovers and prolific solo artist dude, is playing a series of shows for some very lucky Californians in only a matter of days!
Surrender to Jonathan... at these live dates:
HEALTH Head Out On the Road, Barely Leave Home State of California, But They Still Have Roads There – I Checked
Relatively fresh off a long national tour and their stint as a band that impressed a lot of people at CMJ, HEALTH appear to be taking a short, well-earned break.
They played a few shows around California this past weekend, but come the New Year, it looks like they'll be setting the West Coast ablaze with nothing but passion, a van, several guitars and drums, and a hell of a lot of effects pedals. Probably other things, too.
Eventually, I'm told, the band plans to tour the rest of the states with The Crystal Castles, but for now, you'll have to take a long, tedious trek to Canada, the Golden State, or whatever Washington and Oregon's state nicknames are.
I don't have much else to say about this. They're a band. They're touring. Some of the shows are with Dan Deacon, and some are with White Williams. I like the band name "Robin Williams on Fire," and I hope that that's what they sound like.
! Robin Williams on Fire
# White Williams

When Alterna-rock godfather and all-around masochistic pacifist Kurt D. Cobain coined the phrase "I think I'm dumb" back in 1993, he apparently had NOOOOOOO idea just how right he would come to be once this ruthless 21st century got its money-grubbing hands on him.
We're only in the year 2007, for god's sake, and the poor guy has already had his private journals published, his back-catalog pillaged for some pretty piss-poor best-ofs and box sets, his publishing rights sliced up and passed around like delicious prime rib, and his angst-ridden music reduced to kindergarten sing-a-longs by the likes of The Polyphonic Spree. Why, it seems like only yesterday that we here at TMT reported that the Nirvana song "Breed" had been egregiously licensed for a telecom ad, an upcoming action movie, and the videogame Major League Baseball 2K7 (TMT News).
And NOW, as if his legacy hadn't been turned into ENOUGH of a joke, Primary Wave (the music publishing company that first heard the lyrics "I don't even care/ We don't have to breed" and saw dollar signs) has apparently decided to create a monument to their own indecency by issuing one of the most cartoonishly outlandish bits of Nirvana miscellanea ever created: the solid wood "Heart Shaped Box-set" music box.
Shhhhh... listen...
Did you hear him rolling over in that grave yet again? This is getting old, isn't it?
Yes, you heard right, folks. Apparently, these Primary Wave dudes must have played hooky on the day their junior high English classes learned about metaphor, cuz this thing is an honest-to-goodness piece of wood that has been hand-treated and shaped like a heart symbol (as opposed to the actual organ) and contains not four chambers, but a set of five CDs of classic Cobainality. Believe it or not, 500 of these musical monstrosities were legitimately created by degree-holding business-men as a giveaway for the kinds of high-rolling music supervisors and ring-wearing advertising execs who may actually have the power and budget to license one of Cobain's rarified tracks. You know, like Frankie Sharp from Wayne's World or something.
But wait! You haven't even heard the most ludicrous parts yet: The hard-wood cover has the Nirvana logo burned onto its top, and the whole caboodle comes packaged in a white cake-box with the Nirvana smiley-face printed on it. Aaaaaaaaaand of course, there's the pièce de résistance: when you open this little beauty, a small speaker proceeds to serenade you with none other than the classic HSB itself! Right now you're probably asking yourself, "So wait, the whole thing also functions like some sort of giant, grotesque music box?" The answer is yes.
As for the more practical side (if there is one) of this whole affair, the music encased inside this literal heart-shaped box includes three discs of 50 songs performed by Nirvana, plus another two discs of cover songs, including stirring renditions of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Paul Anka, Scala, Tori Amos, Patti Smith, and Desmond Williams; tracks by Charlie Hunter Trio, Steve Earle, Herbie Hancock, Sinead O'Connor, and Stereophonics; and multi-song sets of Nirvana songs done as lullabies (!) and orchestral scores. Can you say "Volkswagen ad?"
So, what's an item like this worth, considering that it's EXTREMELY rare, and yet EXTREMELY unpalatable to most legitimate Nirvana fans at the same time? Well, I guess we'll find out together, dear readers. The market will soon set its price, as one lucky recipient in Detroit (Ford Motor Company, perhaps?) recently put #64/500 up on eBay. Unfortunately, the bidding seems to have ended for this particular item, so only time will tell how much the world's wealthiest and most uninformed Nirvana fans are willing to shell-out in order to compensate for not being able to play music themselves. I don't know about you, but if I were Kurt Cobain's ghost, I'd be screaming "Hey, wait, I've got a new complaint" right about now.

Sermons: The Book of Acts
Join Pastor Tony in a study of the book of Acts.
Redeemer Hoboken exists to serve God and our neighbors. Learn about our vision, beliefs, and membership process.
The centerpiece of our church is Christ, binding the relationships formed within our walls. We hope to see you soon.
What Happens when Men get together … in the woods … for a weekend … on a retreat?
At Redeemer Hoboken's Fall Men's Retreat, the men enjoyed an open fire, black coffee, juicy steak… and the topic of Courage. No, not the bravery that some of us attempted to display playing tag-football while way past our respective "primes," but rather Courage unpacked in a Biblical way.
Darin Kinder led our discussions. He reminded us that while boys take, men give life. We explored what it means to be valiant men: powered by Integrity, Courage and Compassion.
To truly have integrity we must acknowledge God as our creator. We must confess and repent our sin. We must embrace the enormity of God and his love for us in Christ through faith and humility. Only then can we walk in courage… without fear… on the pathway of love (compassion).
God's word teaches that the opposite of fear is love: "Perfect love casts out fear." Yet so often we find ourselves living in unbelief: thinking we are not loved, being unloving, and living in fear– all for no Godly reason.
We trap ourselves in a, "good works mentality," instead of living with the unshackled freedom available through God's grace. We need to accept his love, power, and faithfulness.
It was so much fun congregating with the men of the church. The food and fellowship was great, but the best part was to learn, remember, and be reminded that, "God is Love," and, "Christ is our Life." When triangulated one might translate: Agape Love = Life. Fear takes away life with expectations of punishment and death. When we embrace who we are with integrity and own up to our needed humility (because He chose to take our place in spite of us), then we begin to understand that courageous love gives life.
I guess the line in the movie Shawshank Redemption still applies: "Get busy living or get busy dying."
-Glenn Miles

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. The area is politically divided, including the following political formations: *The sovereign nation of Kiribati. Formerly administered by the British Empire (1892-1979) under the name Gilbert Islands. Part of the its area was occupied by Japan during World War II. The most famous event in recent history is the Battle of Tarawa (1943), between the Japanese and the Americans. The United States Marines won the battle but famously suffered heavy casualties. About 1,000 dead marines, another 2,300 wounded. *The organized territory of Guam. Also known as Guahan. Administered by the United States. Covering the largest and southernmost island of the Marianas. Previously controlled as a colony by the Spanish Empire (1565-1898), the United States (1898-1941), Japan (1941-1944) and again by the United States (1944-1950). The territory gained its own administration in 1950, when all residents gained American citizenship. Guam was another famous battleground of World War II,. Better known for the Second Battle of Guam (1944) where c. 18,000 Japanese soldiers were killed in combat. While only 485 were captured alive. *The Northern Mariana Islands. A commonwealth in political union with the United States. Consists of 15 islands, but c. 90% of the population lives in Saipan. Previously controlled as a colony by the Spanish Empire (1565-1898), the German Empire (1898- de facto 1914, de jure 1919), the Japanese Empire (de facto 1914, de jure 1919- 1944/1945), and the United States (1944/1945-1978). The area served as a battleground in both World War I and World War II. Better known for the Battle of Saipan (1944) where 24,000 Japanese soldiers were killed in battle, 5,000 committed suicide and only 921 were captured alive. * The sovereign nation of the Marshall Islands. Previously controlled by the Spanish Empire (1874-1884), the German Empire (1884 - de facto 1914, de jure 1919), the Japanese Empire (de facto 1914, de jure 1919-1944), and the United States (1944-1986). While serving as a battleground in both World Wars, the islands are more famous as the test for United States nuclear weapons. 67 nuclear weapons were tested between 1946-1958, making the islands "by far the most contaminated place in the world". More than 20 of the test took place in the famous Bikini Atoll, rendering the Atoll unsuitable for human habitation. The local population had to be relocated to other islands. * The sovereign nation of Palau. In the 19th century the area was claimed concurrently by the British Empire, the Spanish Empire and the German Empire. The Spanish claim was internationally recognized in 1885. The area was then controlled by the Spanish Empire (1885-1899), the German Empire (1899 -de facto 1914, de jure 1919), the Japanese Empire (de facto 1914, de jure 1919-1944), the United States (de facto 1944, de jure 1947 - 1994). The area served as a battleground in both World Wars. Better known for the Battle of Peleliu (1944), where Japanese and American forces mostly incapacitated each other. 10,965 Japanese soldiers were killed, only 202 captured alive. 1,794 American soldiers were killed, 8,010 wounded. Meaning that about 1/3 of the total American forces were unavailable for further combats. " Considering the number of men involved, Peleliu had the highest casualty rate of any battle in the Pacific War." *The Federated States of Micronesia. A sovereign nation including 607 islands, divided into four federal states: Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, and Kosrae. Previously controlled by the Spanish Empire (16th century - 1899), the German Empire (1898- de facto 1914, de jure 1919), the Japanese Empire (de facto 1914, de jure 1919- 1944), and the United States (de facto 1944, de jure 1947 - 1986). The islands were a battleground in both World Wars. Most famous for the Battle of Truk Island/"Operation Hailstone" (1944), a combination of airstrikes, naval combat and submarine warfare taking place as the American forces attempted to capture a stronghold of the Japanese Navy. The American forces eventually switched tactics and simply started laying siege to the island until 1945. *The sovereign nation of Nauru. Formerly known as "Pleasant Island". Currently the world's smallest island nation. The island escaped European colonization until the 19th century. A prolonged civil war (1878-1888) reduced the population to only 900 people. Allowing the German Empire to annex it with little to no conflict. Subsequently it was controlled by the German Empire (1888-1914), Australia (1914 - 1923), co-administrated by Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom (1923-1942), the Japanese Empire (1942- 1945) and back to the co-administration (1945-1968). The island was a minor battleground of both World Wars but is not associated with any major battle. It had high strategic value because of the island's main industry: the extraction of phosphate rock (natural phosphorus). * Wake Island. A corral atoll. An unorganized exclave of the United States. Little to no civilian population, access to the island is restricted. The island is directly controlled by the United States Air Force and also houses a missile facility of the United States Army. The island was visited by Micronesian sailors and foreign ships for centuries with none bothering to settle there permanently. The United States annexed the atoll in 1899. The first settlement in the island history was created in 1935. It was a village built by Pan American Airways to serve as a stop to its flights. A military base of the United States Navy was constructed in 1941. Mainly housing Marines. The island was invaded by Japan in the so-called "Battle of Wake Island" (December 8-23, 1941) which ended with the American garrison captured and relocated to POW camps. Japanese occupation lasted from 1941 to 1945. When the island was returned to the United States.

You may recall our earlier posts describing the gTLD process (see: The New gTLDs: Who, What and When).
ICANN's process introduces new generic Top-Level-Domains (or gTLDs), expanding the domain name system from the current familar strings such as .com, .net and .ca, etc. to who knows what… .flowers, .lawyers or .anything. The application period was due to close on April 12, 2012. May 1, 2012 was slated as "Reveal Day", when the applicants and their proposed TLDs were to be published. So far, some 2,091 applications along with USD$350 million in application fees have been submitted to ICANN. The May 1st deadline has passed without the publication of the application information, because ICANN has suffered a "software glitch" which must be resolved before the application period can be reopened and finalized.
Once that is complete, ICANN will publish the names of applicants and their proposed TLDs. This triggers a seven-month objection period, during which rightsholders can file a complaint. A recent article from Managing Intellectual Property reports that the "Trademark Clearinghouse" is also behind schedule.
Even if half of the applications are approved, that means the introduction of a thousand new generic Top-Level-Domains. Trade-mark owners, brace yourselves.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Spankie!
Facts about Spankie
- Breed: Cairn Terrier/Maltese Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Spankie's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Spankie was rescued from Orlando pound within minutes of being killed there for they just had too many--He is still just a baby and loves to play--He is a pure Lover-Boy--and just look at those ears!! He loves the world!! Let's get this sweet boy his forever new family--Diana -954-626-0708
Other Pets at Death Row Dog Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Spankie, a Hollywood Cairn Terrier/Maltese puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Cairn Terrier/Maltese for sale in Hollywood, or seeking a Cairn Terrier/Maltese puppy from a breeder in Hollywood.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Hollywood already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Hollywood breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Cairn Terrier/Maltese breeders who help with Cairn Terrier/Maltese rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Hollywood paves the way for another one to be saved.

Little Browser Grows Up: Firefox at Five
November 9, 2004 was when Firefox was officially born. A look back on its fifth birthday.
Five years ago, Mozilla placed a full-page ad in the New York Times, which required more than $250,000 in donations, the donor names comprising the tiny print behind the Firefox logo. The ad ended up becoming burned indelibly into the minds of many users and showed what the community and the open source concept was capable of.
Firefox had emerged from the Mozilla project that combined a whole bundle of programs (browser, email program, editor and news reader) into one Mozilla Suite. As a separate program, the browser was to be significantly faster to start up and more efficient in delivering webpages.
Meanwhile Firefox has become a well established browser and is no longer the only competitor to Microsoft's Internet Explorer market leader. Firefox wanted to win back some of the market share that Microsoft gained by coupling its operating system with that of Netscape. Firefox 1.0 was also positioning itself against Apple's Safari browser.
According to Marketshare.hitslink.com, worldwide Firefox market share is currently at 24%, as compared to Internet Explorer's 65%, but growing. Chrome, Safari and Opera are each under 5% market share. Best wishes, Firefox, may you never become fat and lazy with age!

HD 4870X2 set to offer staggering 2 GB GDDR5
Contrary to conflicting reports, AMD's eagerly anticipated HD 4870X2 will indeed ship with 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, according to confirmation received by Fudzilla.
Refreshed AMD, is clearly holding no punches, with the HD 4870X2, codenamed 'Spartan', heading for a late-August debut, according to reports.
The company is either undecided, or, holding final clock speed information very close to its chest, but as excitement builds, rival NVIDIA undoubtedly has something or the other up its sleeve.
The HD 4800 solution hoping to eclipse all others, is definitely on its way.

G.Skill demos DDR3-2000 running at CL8
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 G.Skill showed us the new cooling solutions like the passive and active clip on that fit over the DDR slots.
Their new SSD is ready to roll out with the other companies who were also showing their products in Taipei this week.
And their DDR3 running at some nice speeds and the kicker is... its 2000MHz DDR at CL8.
Most companies who make decent RAM had memory operating at around or near 2000MHz during the show this week but most were running CL9, so this is impressive.

NVIDIAs next-next-gen cards to move to GDDR5
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 our friends at bit-tech have discovered that NVIDIA plan to harness GDDR5 based memory in conjunction with its D12U codenamed graphics cards, though these arn't likely to be launched before late 2009. Although the sooner to be released D10U based models are also yet to hit the market, it's been ascertained that these will stick to GDDR3 memory.
Obviously, D12U probably hasn't even left the drawing board yet, but it's clear that Nvidia is already in discussions with memory manufacturers about the supply of high-speed GDDR5 memory. We already know that ATI's next-generation graphics cards support GDDR5, and we're likely to see the new memory technology used on the RV770XT-based products.
GDDR5 is currently made on a 70nm node, but by the time Nvidia gets around to using it, it'll be manufactured on a 55nm process - that's expected to happen at some point during 2009. What's more, by the end of Q1 2009, memory manufacturers expect to have doubled the density of the technology, meaning higher capacity memory kits will be available for newer graphics cards.

Kingston's range of new memory products on show
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 Kingston have always done some great products and today's tour was no exception.
Starting with some USB thumb drives that they claim are currently the fastest on the market (30MB/s Read and 20MB/s write. On display was 2, 8 and 16GB models, only out in the USA at the moment.
Next was a new design series called terracotta that is aimed at giving the thumb drives a quality look and feel. This model is based on a design of the terracotta warriors.
Kingston is also making headway with the smaller thumb drives in an effort to compete with every other memory manufacturer out there it seems.
An interesting note is that they are also trying co-marketing ventures within specific regions that allow them to pre-load the drives with content in an effort to help boost sales. Seen here is a tie in with World of Warcraft for Taiwan specifically that gives the buyer extra points to spend online.
Moving on to the DDR2 and DDR3 memory modules Kingston show us a full buffered module for server usage that has some passive heat pipe dissipation on top to keep it really cool.
Also on show are some new DDR3 modules running at 2000MHz FSB.

Corsair to release 4GB 2000MHz DDR3 Kit
Corsair have given the heads up that they plan to release a monster 4GB DDR3 memory kit next week at Computex which is rated to run at speeds of 2000MHz; this kit to appropriately fall into their DOMINATOR line-up.
The pre-release announcement doesn't mention if the kit comprises 4x1GB or 2x2GB modules, nor the timings of these modules, but I'm sure we'll find that out upon launch next week. Corsair do mention however that they have set a USD MSRP of $675 on the kit; certainly an improvement for DDR3 pricing, but there's still a long road to travel yet.
Fremont, CA, May 29, 2008 - Corsair® http://www.corsair.com, a worldwide leader in high performance computer and flash memory products, today announced that it will launch a new 4GB DOMINATOR DDR3 memory kit running at 2000MHz at CompuTex 2008, held June 3-7, 2008 in Taipei. Tested and guaranteed for operation at the lightning fast overclocked speed of 2000MHz, this 4GB DOMINATOR kit provides superior performance for desktop platforms.
"Corsair is focused on building the industry's fastest memory available in the largest densities," said Richard Hashim, Director of Marketing at Corsair. "This new ultra-fast DDR3 4GB DOMINATOR solution demonstrates Corsair's commitment to lead the memory technology transition from DDR2 to DDR3 and from 2GB solutions to 4GB solutions. Enthusiasts worldwide demand it and we are happy to support their requirements."

Super Talent intro DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM RAM
Super Talent has today launched its first DDR3 SO-DIMM memory module that is designed to work with the upcoming Intel Centrino 2 platform of notebook computers.
The memory works using just 1.5 volts of power (compared to 1.8 volts of DDR2) and is said to generate less heat as a result and also reduce power consumption by up to 20% in the memory department.
Super Talent has already began selling this memory and the 204-pin modules will set you back about $99 USD for a 1GB module.

Apacer's Aeolus DDR3 w/ active cooling
Memory maker Apacer has just released the new Aeolus series of DDR3 memory modules, initially comprising both DDR3-1600MHz and 1800MHz overclocking parts.
What stands out most about these particular modules is the heatsink design. Unlike anything seen in the memory market before, these modules use an active heatspreader with an in-built low noise fan that helps in the heat dissipation process. Apacer claim that by using this heatsink/fan design, temperatures are reduced by up to 20c. We've seen standalone active cooling solutions for memory modules before, but nothing built-in to the heatspreaders themselves; a rather interesting concept.
Getting back to the modules themselves, both speed variants come in 2x1GB Dual Channel kits with support for Intel's XMP. Timings are quite respectable for DDR3 memory at 7-7-7-20.
For further information, head over to Apacer's website.
Besides providing ultra-high speed and ultra-low latency, the Apacer Aeolus memory modules also use a unique, patented active heat spreader design that makes it possible to reduce the temperature by as much as 20C. This highly effective solution to the problem of heat dissipation for DDR3 overclocking memory modules improves both overclocking performance and memory stability.
Apacer's new DDR3-1800MHz/1600MHz memory module provides 2GB of memory capacity in a dual-channel (1GB2) package, and supports Intel's latest XMP (Extreme Memory Profiles). When used with a motherboard that supports Intel XMP, the chipset will automatically read the memory module's SPD (Serial Presence Detect) and will then automatically perform overclocking, enabling the user to experience all the excitement and power that overclocking has to offer.

Comments about Montblanc Legend By Mont Blanc:
I was so absolutely dissapointed by this fragrance. I expected a clean and crisp scent. Instead I was bowled over by acid and pine sol. Not in a good pine sol way. Pay attention to the "striking" description provided by the maker. They nailed it.

Goodbye Rukia |
Okay being the Ichiruki fan I am when I heard Bleach: fade to Black was being made to support the Ichiruki fandom I was delighted to watch and enjoy the fun and mind-blowing interaction between Kuchiki Rukia and Ichigo Kurosaki.
Mayuri makes memory storage... Mysterious people attack.. More mystery happens, Mayuri goes crazy, Next day Ichigo doesn't know Rukia..Ichigo remembers Rukia with Kon's help....They go to Soul Sociry and.............You know what fuck it IT A ICHIRUKI MOVIE I can't expalin every little detail and spoil it for ya go watch the movie and see if it is interesting to ya
Rukia and Shizuku's "sister". She and her brother died defending Rukia from a parasitic Hollow, but were revived by absorbing it into their bodies. She is able to grant any wish Rukia makes. She received her name after Rukia recovered her memories. 8.5/10
Rukia and Homura's "brother". He and his sister died defending Rukia from a parasitic Hollow, but were revived by absorbing it into their bodies. 5/10 Yea I ddn't care for him too much not that important
Dark Rukia is a Hollowfied form of Rukia created when Homura, enraged by Ichigo's attempts to restore Rukia's memory, wished to merge herself, Rukia, and Shizuku into a single being. The process ended when Ichigo infused Rukia with his reiatsu and she regained her memories. 10/10 Just cuz I like the concept
It is a good movie if you like movies about bonds and love or if you like stories of sad little kids who desire for a name. Or if your just a Ichiruki fan

Seems I read a few years ago about disc replacement surgery being done in Europe.
I herniated a disc a few years ago and have had problems every since. I did try the back clinic "rack" machine but all it did was make my back feel worse though I finished the treatments (not sure I should have though). Friday morning I did "something" and now have been down for the count all weekend just barely able to hobble around. Same a few months ago. This has really had a negative impact on my life (gardening, hiking, shopping etc.) though with trying to be very careful I have so far only had very very mild and occasional leg pain. I.e. its not bad enough to anything too drastic. I would so love for some new treatment to be in the works? |

Most insurance still doesn't pay for ADR/artificial disc replacement. You might want to check out the information on the below linked wesbsite. |

Mary, my neighbor had an artificial disc and it worked great. It's not new treatment, but when I had disc problems, I was treated with predisone, anti-inflammatories, and an epidural steroid injection. Hope you are feeling better soon. |

How To Triumph As A "Supermom"
It still gives me chills to talk or write about this horrific incident. It was so life altering and eye opening; it was my "ah-ha" moment. In those few seconds that seemed like days, I had lost a part of myself, the part that always thought I was in control. I fled when I should have fought. What would I have done if my husband wasn't home? What was I doing crying on the floor? Why was my 5-year-old comforting me when I should have been comforting him? Why didn't I have the sense to stick my finger down my daughter's throat immediately? I simply panicked. I froze like water turning to ice.
Endocrinologist Hans Selye discovered the concept of fight vs. flight. He stated that when fear arises and we perceive a significant threat to us, our bodies get ready either for a fight to the death or a desperate flight from certain defeat by a clearly superior adversary. At times, our bodies just go numb or we "freeze." Seyle's concept is brilliant and true but for me, the real question is: can we control whether or not we fight or flee?
After my daughter began breathing again, my husband made his way down the steps to where I was sitting and laid into me. In a stern voice, he said, "Sue, you have to react first and panic later. What would you have done if I was not here?" At first, I was filled with anger towards him and rebutted with, "I did the best I could. I'm sorry." But later that day, I began to think to myself, "Maybe my husband was right and I could have done better."
Perhaps I could have used self-talk and said to myself, "Stay calm here and take action." Paramedics seem to be able to do it when they arrive at a catastrophe. Why can't a supermom, like me? The answer is that supermom can and most people can, too. They just need an honest husband like mine to give them a dose of reality and a belief in yourself that you actually do have power over your actions. 2 Types Of Parents: Which One Are You?
I have always been a firm believer that if we model positive behaviors for our children on a consistent basis, our children will most likely emulate those behaviors. Of course, we are not perfect; every mom has a bad moment once in a while. Yet, children are like sponges soaking up information in their early years. They often do what they see. So, my suggestion to all you supermoms out there is to be an example for your child.
Do what you can to enforce positive behaviors. You will be amazed how much less anxiety you and your child will have. "When you do know better, you must do better." These are the famous words of Maya Angelou and I know now how true this saying really is. Now that I know better, I do better. Since that horrific summer day in August of 2010, I have been able to do a better job at fighting rather than fleeing.
For instance, the other day, my now 7-year-old son jumped off the bed and came very close to banging his chin on the corner of the post. For a minute, I felt myself almost retreat to panic, but I quickly pulled back and calmly walked over to my son and said, "It's alright, but don't you ever do that again." After all, I am still a concerned mom. I will always have fears and worry about my children, but I also have more control than I ever thought I had. So, thank you my dear husband, I guess you are right once in a while.
~Dr. Sue

About Marcus Whitman
Marcus Whitman (September 4, 1802 – November 29, 1847) was an American physician and missionary in the Oregon Country. Along with his wife Narcissa Whitman, he started a mission to the Cayuse in what is now southeastern Washington state in 1836. The area later developed as a trading post and stop along the Oregon Trail, and the city of Walla Walla, Washington developed near there.
In 1843 Whitman led the first large party of wagon trains along the Oregon Trail to the West, establishing it as a viable route for the hundreds of thousands of immigrants who used the trail in the following decade. Settlers encroached on the Cayuse near the Whitman mission. Following the deaths of all the Cayuse children and half their adults from a measles epidemic in 1847, in which the Cayuse suspected the Whitmans' responsibility, they killed the Whitmans and 12 other settlers in what became known as the Whitman Massacre. Continuing warfare by settlers reduced the Cayuse numbers further and they eventually joined the Nez Perce tribe to survive.
Early life
On September 4, 1802, Marcus Whitman was born in Federal Hollow, New York to Alice and Beza Whitman. The family's immigrant paternal ancestor was John Whitman, who immigrated to the Massachusetts Bay Colony before 1639 from England. After his father Beza's death when Whitman was seven years old, he was sent to Massachusetts to live with his uncle.
He dreamed of becoming a minister but did not have the money for such schooling. As a young man, he had returned to New York. He studied medicine for two years with an experienced physician under the form of apprenticeship approved then, and received his degree from Fairfield Medical College in New York. He practiced for a few years in Canada but was interested in going to the West.
In 1834 Whitman applied to the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. They initially denied him for health reasons, but he was later accepted as a missionary doctor. In 1835, he traveled with the missionary Samuel Parker to present-day northwestern Montana and northern Idaho, to minister to bands of the Flathead and Nez Percé nations. During this journey, Whitman treated several fur trappers during an outbreak of cholera. At the end of their stay, he promised the Nez Percé that he would return with other missionaries and teachers to live with them.
After his return to New York, Whitman attended a speech by Parker, who then represented the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. He called for missionaries for the West. Whitman volunteered again to go West.
Marriage and family
In 1836, Whitman married Narcissa Prentiss, a teacher of physics and chemistry. Narcissa had also been eager to travel west as a missionary, but she had been unable to do so as a single woman. They had one daughter, Alice Clarissa, born On March 14, 1837, the first Anglo-American child born in Oregon Country. She was named after her two grandmothers. She drowned in the Walla Walla River at age two.
As settlers came in increasing numbers, the Whitmans took in eleven orphaned children, adopting eight from one family whose parents had died. They also established a kind of boarding school for settlers' children at their mission.
The way west
On May 25, 1836, the couple, and a group of other missionaries including Henry and Eliza Spalding, joined a caravan of fur traders and traveled west. The fur company caravan was led by the mountain men Milton Sublette and Thomas Fitzpatrick. The fur traders had seven covered wagons, each pulled by six mules. An additional cart drawn by two mules carried Milton Sublette, who had lost a leg a year earlier and walked on a "cork" leg made by a friend. The combined group arrived at the fur-traders' annual rendezvous on July 6.
The group established several missions as well as Whitman's settlement at a Cayuse settlement called Waiilatpu (Why-ee-lat-poo, the 't' is half silent) in the Cayuse language, meaning "place of the rye grass". It was located just west of the northern end of the Blue Mountains. The present-day city of Walla Walla, Washington developed six miles to the east. The settlement was in the territory of both the Cayuse and the Nez Percé tribes. Whitman farmed and provided medical care, while Narcissa set up a school for the Native American children.
In 1843, Whitman traveled east, and on his return he helped lead the first large group of wagon trains west from Fort Hall, in southeastern Idaho. Known as the "Great Emigration", it established the viability of the Oregon Trail for later homesteaders. Not having much success with converting the Cayuse, the Whitmans gave more attention to the settlers. They took in children to their own home and established a boarding school for settlers' children.
The Cayuse resented the encroachment of European Americans. More significantly, the influx of white settlers in the territory brought new infectious diseases to the Indian tribes, including a severe epidemic of measles in 1847. The Native Americans lack of immunity to Eurasian diseases resulted in high death rates, with children dying in striking numbers. The Whitmans cared for both Cayuse and white settlers, but half of the Cayuse died and nearly all their children. Seeing that more whites survived, the Cayuse blamed the Whitmans for the devastating deaths among their people.
The Cayuse tradition held medicine men personally responsible for the patient's recovery. Their despair at the deaths, especially of their children, led the Cayuse under chief Tiloukaikt to kill the Whitmans in their home on November 29, 1847. Warriors destroyed most of the buildings at Waiilatpu and killed twelve other white settlers in the community. The events became known among European-American settlers as the Whitman Massacre. The Cayuse held another 53 women and children captive for a month before releasing them through negotiations. These events, and continued European-American encroachment, triggered a continuing conflict between the occupying white settlers and the Cayuse that became known as the Cayuse War. They were so reduced in number that survivors joined the Nez Percé tribe.
Historians have noted contemporary accounts of competition between the Protestant missionaries and Catholic priests, who had become established with Jesuit missions from Canada and St. Louis, Missouri, as contributing to the tensions. The Roman Catholic priest John Baptiste Brouillet aided the survivors and helped bury the victims. But, the Rev. Henry H. Spalding later wrote a pamphlet stating forcefully that the Catholic priests, including Father Brouillet, had incited the Cayuse to massacre.
"Spalding's version of the disaster was printed and reprinted, sometimes at taxpayer expense, for the next half-century. It was finally discredited in 1901 by Yale University historian Edward Gaylord Brown."
Whitman is commemorated by Whitman College in Walla Walla, Whitman County, Washington, the Wallowa–Whitman National Forest, Mount Rainier's Whitman Glacier, and numerous schools, including Marcus Whitman Central School in Rushville, New York, his hometown. In 1953, the state of Washington donated a statue of Whitman by the sculptor Avard Fairbanks to the National Statuary Hall Collection in the United States Capitol. The Washington State Legislature has declared the fourth day of September as Marcus Whitman Day.

Mariaville tornado survivors tell tale of luck, determination
Brian Pedersen of Mariaville got out of the hospital Friday morning, about a day and a half after a tornado shot him out of his new barn near Mariaville Lake.
"I'm lucky to be alive and I give thanks for that," Pedersen told CBS6 News.
He says he and his daughter's boyfriend, Kacey Bradt were in the barn Wednesday night, thinking it was a safe place to be but then noticed a 12-foot square door opening up from the bottom as though the hinges were at the top.
"And I said, 'Dude, it's not supposed to do that, why's it doing that?" Pedersen says they walked toward the door thinking they would tie it down. They didn't have time.
"The door kinda did a few little floppy-flop flops, whoosh! Gone. Next thing you know the roof's lifting off the building. It was like something out of a movie. You wouldn't believe it."
Pedersen says that's when the began to run. Bradt was faster and was first to reach shelter behind some stairs, grabbing onto an 8x8 post. The storm grabbed Pedersen. "And it just kinda picked me up and threw me right out the front door. I think I landed face first in the gravel." He ended up with cuts on his face and a horseshoe-shaped gash in the back of his head down to the bone. He assumes part of the barn caused it.
Bradt says as he was holding the pole, he saw Pedersen go flying by.
"He got slung right out the door, five to six feet of the ground," say Bradt. "The noise was just so loud."
Bradt says after about twenty seconds he went outside to find Pedersen, on his feet and bleeding. He says he put Pedersen on an ATV and drove through a field toward South Shore Road, avoiding the driveway that was blocked by fallen trees. Finding the same problem on South Shore Road, they had to walk about half a mile to Mariaville Road where Bradt flagged down an EMT who happened to be driving by just as they reached the road.
Pedersen said at first he thought he would not rebuild the barn, but after thinking it over in the hours after getting out of the hospital he may have changed his mind. He had built it over the last two years with help from Bradt, his brother Kevin Pedersen and one or two other friends, almost to the point of completion.
"It's a little early for me to say what I'm going to do but I probably will (rebuild)...we'll see what happens."

1 Who is like the wise man and who knows the interpretation of a matter? A man's wisdom illumines him and causes his stern face to beam. | 1 Who is like the wise man? Who knows the explanation of things? Wisdom brightens a man's face and changes its hard appearance. |
2 I say, "Keep the command of the king because of the oath before God. | 2 Obey the king's command, I say, because you took an oath before God. |
3 "Do not be in a hurry to leave him. Do not join in an evil matter, for he will do whatever he pleases." | 3 Do not be in a hurry to leave the king's presence. Do not stand up for a bad cause, for he will do whatever he pleases. |
4 Since the word of the king is authoritative, who will say to him, "What are you doing?" | 4 Since a king's word is supreme, who can say to him, "What are you doing?" |
5 He who keeps a royal command experiences no trouble, for a wise heart knows the proper time and procedure. | 5 Whoever obeys his command will come to no harm, and the wise heart will know the proper time and procedure. |
6 For there is a proper time and procedure for every delight, though a man's trouble is heavy upon him. | 6 For there is a proper time and procedure for every matter, though a man's misery weighs heavily upon him. |
7 If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen? | 7 Since no man knows the future, who can tell him what is to come? |
8 No man has authority to restrain the wind with the wind, or authority over the day of death; and there is no discharge in the time of war, and evil will not deliver those who practice it. | 8 No man has power over the wind to contain it; so no one has power over the day of his death. As no one is discharged in time of war, so wickedness will not release those who practice it. |
9 All this I have seen and applied my mind to every deed that has been done under the sun wherein a man has exercised authority over another man to his hurt. | 9 All this I saw, as I applied my mind to everything done under the sun. There is a time when a man lords it over others to his own hurt. |
10 So then, I have seen the wicked buried, those who used to go in and out from the holy place, and they are soon forgotten in the city where they did thus. This too is futility. | 10 Then too, I saw the wicked buried--those who used to come and go from the holy place and receive praise in the city where they did this. This too is meaningless. |
11 Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil. | 11 When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, the hearts of the people are filled with schemes to do wrong. |
12 Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still I know that it will be well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly . | 12 Although a wicked man commits a hundred crimes and still lives a long time, I know that it will go better with God-fearing men, who are reverent before God. |
13 But it will not be well for the evil man and he will not lengthen his days like a shadow, because he does not fear God. | 13 Yet because the wicked do not fear God, it will not go well with them, and their days will not lengthen like a shadow. |
14 There is futility which is done on the earth, that is, there are righteous men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked. On the other hand, there are evil men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I say that this too is futility. | 14 There is something else meaningless that occurs on earth: righteous men who get what the wicked deserve, and wicked men who get what the righteous deserve. This too, I say, is meaningless. |
15 So I commended pleasure, for there is nothing good for a man under the sun except to eat and to drink and to be merry, and this will stand by him in his toils throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun. | 15 So I commend the enjoyment of life, because nothing is better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany him in his work all the days of the life God has given him under the sun. |
16 When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the task which has been done on the earth (even though one should never sleep day or night ), | 16 When I applied my mind to know wisdom and to observe man's labor on earth--his eyes not seeing sleep day or night-- |
17 and I saw every work of God, I concluded that man cannot discover the work which has been done under the sun. Even though man should seek laboriously, he will not discover; and though the wise man should say, "I know," he cannot discover. | 17 then I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all his efforts to search it out, man cannot discover its meaning. Even if a wise man claims he knows, he cannot really comprehend it. |

text: I love the color of the bustier, and the necklace compliments it so well. Having a pop of color contrasts perfectly with the rest of the black outfit.
